The Lost & Found Institute

Miguel lived with his uncle because his parents were struggling, and it wasn’t safe for him to be with them. His uncle worked hard to give Miguel a stable home, but as Miguel grew older, he ended up in foster care as a teenager. This was a difficult change, and adjusting to a new home was hard for him. During this tough time, he found comfort in nature. Camping became his way to escape and relax. Miguel has two younger siblings still in foster care, and he hopes they can be reunited with their uncle soon. He stays in touch with them to show they’re not alone, and he is determined to support them, just like he wished he had support when he first entered foster care.

Miguel would love a pair of Apple AirPods so he can enjoy listening to his favorite music while working out! For Miguel, working out is a chance to challenge himself, build confidence, and take care of his physical and mental well-being. Music is a great way to stay motivated, focused, and energized. Whether he's lifting weights, going for a run, or pushing himself toward a new fitness goal, Miguel would love to have his favorite songs playing to keep him going. Since AirPods are wireless, he can move around freely, no matter what activity he chooses.
